Effect of UV-weathering on flex fatigue of plastic optical fiber
Original language description
In this research, the impact of UV-weathering is evaluated for flex fatigue of side emitting plastic optical fibers (POFs). Two different brand POFs (trade names: Grace & Hypoff) with three different diameters each are used for the experiment. All POFs are tested for the number of bending cycles to break before weathering and after 1 year equivalent of artificial UV-weathering. It was observed that there is a significant loss in terms of bending properties but flexibility of Plastic optical fiber (POF)is increased. Smaller diameter POF's are more impacted by UV-weathering than thicker ones. Three parameter Weibull distribution is used for estimation of minimum numbers of bending cycles to break for POFs.
